The Round Brilliant cut diamond is a true timeless classic. The cut of this diamond has evolved over the past 150 years to the point of perfection. Master Diamond Cutters have achieved this ensuring that the many different facets of the diamond are cut as symmetrically as possible, thus ensuring that the maximum amount of light is refracted out of the diamond resulting in a fiery display of light and brilliance.

The Marquise cut diamond is a truly elegant and historic diamond. It is believed this shape was created in France around the early 17th century by Louse XV for his mistress Marquise de Pompadour. This is a diamond offering true romance and pedigree.
